Mysterious Skin
I trust that youll find it somewhere.
Oscar still owes him a nomination for this one.
Fun fact for Parks and Rec fans: JGLs name in the movie is Chris Pratt.
For their first pairing, look toManic, a surprisingly grounded 2001 mental institution drama.

(For proof, see his 2008 Wes Anderson knockoffThe Brothers Bloom.
Mitchum would have been proud.
The film is reminiscent of 1970s films likeThe Deer Hunter, which I think makes JGL Christopher Walken.

Im all about more cowbell.
(Admit it: You still loveAngels in the Outfield.)
Covered in tattoos and perpetually smoking, Gordon-Levitt plays a nilihistic squatter who wreaks havoc on those around him.
He takes the movie to another level.
(Its basicallySpeedon a bike.)
JGL also has the scene-chewing Michael Shannon to play off, who makes every movie hes in infinitely better.
11.Shadowboxer
Okay, dont freak out.
If thats not enough, JGL dates Monique because Lee Daniels does not know what casting is.
You wont be sorry.
Also, JGLs still pretty great in it, but when isnt he great?
Its the one thing in life you’re free to count on.
The sun rises, and Joseph Gordon-Levitt is wonderful.
These are the laws of nature.
